Tax Reform - This is interesting if true

I think I agree that the current method of income tax filing is bogus, i.e. deduct as much as you can to reduce your income so you don't owe as much to the government.  Certainly tax attorneys and CPAs benefit greatly by advising people, and corporations, how to take as many deductions as possible, this certainly does not benefit people who can/t afford their fees.
